You guys are doing it again.   I believe that my head can only keep track of 
a limited number of ideas and then all of you come along with things that 
really incapacitate me.   Yes, I still have a Commodore 64 and two disk 
drives and the tape drive and a couple of monitors and I suppose the printer 
is out in the shed.  But the final straw was the DAK telephone (and numerous 
other things) and I just saw that the other day but I don't remember where 
but I won't be satisfied until I find it again.   I will say that the phone 
finally did bite the dust but I simply cannot bring myself to throw it 
out.....

Maybe it would run if connected to a "Fox Box."
